March2013 Bride

Thanks to all future BBPD brides for the great info. First time posting. We have decided on March 2013 as our month and we are firming up the exact date soon. Many of our questions have already been answered here but we still have a few more that maybe you can help with. 1- what are some travel agencies used and what are some tips you can give? Extra perks for so many room nights? Price per person per night for different rooms, etc. 2- what/where is Bar Higuey and how much extra is it? 3- can you do a beach 3hr reception? If so, how much extra? 4- Is anyone doing roof top/ chill lounge for rehearsal party night before? How much, what do you get for it, totally private? Open to public and if so can we just have impromptu gathering there without paying extra? 5- We are probably going with Strawberry package and then paying extra for each person over 25. Any thoughts on this? 6- is the 3 full day stay before wedding mandatory? If not, how do you get around it? 7- can you get married at resort on a Sunday? Anybody doing this? You guys are great and I can't wait for 2013. Thanks again for all the great posts.
